Grace McCallum Obituary
Grace was a lifelong resident of South Burnaby having attended Nelson Avenue School, and graduating from Burnaby South Secondary in 1944.
"Amazing Grace" was the first dental assistant in White Rock. Grace dedicated 20 years of service to Elders in our community through Meals on Wheels.
Grace and her husband Don enjoyed dancing, dining, their cabin at Point Roberts, and spending time with their family and friends. For years Grace loved her daily drive with her husband Don.. Later in life her granddaughter, Sho would regularly take her throughout the lower mainland purse shopping to add to her collection, always ending with a mocha on the Fraser River.
A celebration of life will be held at Ocean View Funeral Home, 4000 Imperial St., Burnaby V5J 1A4 on August 14th at 1:30pm. Everyone Welcome!

Dear Don and Family, Steve and I send our condolences to you all. Grace was a great lady of Clinton Street. When we moved here 12 years ago, we received a wonderful and accepting welcome from both Don and Grace. There were many neighbourly conversations during our comings and goings on the street, especially over Hal's escape-artist escapades. Grace was warm hearted and down to earth. She always had something kind, friendly and humorous to say, with a sparkle in her eye. We will miss her, and remember her fondly.
